i didn't mention the word.


and really, it just looks off. the large ball seems out of place, i'd suggest adding more detail, and make it a bit smaller, perhaps make it look more mechanicle

I'll think about it... maybe with this particular main hull some changes won't hurt...
But don't take it for certain! I'll THINK about it... :)

First two....very nice
thirds...well give the lower stuff a different shape..maybe something like the other two have...or put in there some quite big rocketluncher.

The first two are okay, but the third has a bad case of penis syndrome. Make the bottom more like the Aurvandil and change the Gatling guns to something less silly.

It's been said before, but I want to hammer this home. The first two are great examples of verticality that's not 'suggestive.' The third is not.

That said, I like the vertical aspect of them, but it seems kind of unneccesary. If the lower struts were mounting a vertical strip of guns, thrusters, or missile tubes, it would seem like they were more part of the hull and not just welded on because you wanted a vertical design scheme.

Sorry, I don't like those 'fins' sticking out the bottom. They seem to have no vital functions and it disrupts the flow of the design in my opinion.

I like the fighters for the most part but the fins kill it for me. If more fighters look like this it would really deduct from the playing experience for me.

The first one looks good. The second is fine. The third needs 'altering' to look sensible.

I agree. The first two look great, expecially the first one.

The last one however, needs some altering. This has NOTHING at all to do with the implied shape or whatever, its just that I don't see the point of having the big knob on the end. It doesn't git the design characteristic of the other parts of the ship as well as the first 2 ships.

Overall. very nice. I'm really a sucker for your models man, they rock..

First one: :doubt: that vertical makes it look weird
Second one: hmm hard to tell, bad screenies; the vertical on this one looks good :)
third one: get rid of that umm... thing, entirely
